DUBIIN , April 10. The trial of Joe
Brady ou the charge of murdering
Cavendish and Barko , was begun this
morning. Notwithstanding the fact
that It was known that all absentees
wonld bo fined 100 , many jurors on
the panel failed to appear. The cato
for the crown was opened by Porter.
DOIILIN , April 11. Porter , crown
counsel , In opening , described the
Phce.ilx park crlmo aa of unparaloled
atrocity a crime that had shocked
the whole clvilieod world. He re
counted with vivid imagery the well
known details of the affair , paid a
warm tribute to the character and life
of Barke and Cavendish , gave partlo-
olars of the organization of the In-
vlnclblos who , he said , doubtless look
ed upon themselves as an invincible
band , bnt the law was stronger than
all these connected with the plot and
looked upon them as guilty in the
eyes of God , as was Brady. He de
clared the object of the conspiracy
was to "remove" all whom they
regarded aa tyrants , probably with the
ultimate purpose of forming a republic ,
of which the four original leaders of the
mnrdtronn gang , Mullet , McCaffrey ,
Oarley and Carey wonld bo the loadIng -
Ing tpirltp. He referred to Sheridan's
share In the crime , hia undertaking to
provide arms when there should be a
call for them Brady and men of hlo
class vi-ora among those always ore-
pared for murder , bnt they were with
out doubt entirely Indifferent aa to the
ultimate objects of that murder.
Brady was at hand when the various
ambushes were laid for Forster.
Counsel for the defense Interposed
an earnest protest against the crown
counsel being suffered by the oonrt to
prejudice the jury against the prisoner ,
Brady , by making assertions like
these , whioh could not be proved ,
IL'he judge refused to .interfere.
Porter-conolnding , dcolared Carey
wonld be put upon the witness stand ,
There was no absolute rnlo of law
which wonld prevent the court from
accepting his evidence unaccompanied
by any other testimony , but there
certainly oonld bo no valid objection
when , as wonld happen In the present
case , there wonld bo produced con
elusive and corroborating evidence to
fortify Carey's. This case should
teach one lesson , that there conld be
tv n honor among members of such so-
iety. The men who had Instigated It
and warmed It Into life ; the men who
had supplied it with funds , which en-
conraged It to carry on Its designs ,
had Had to foreign lands. If there
was any further proof required of how
the conspirators deserted those unlawfully -
lawfully leagued with them It was fur
nished by the fact that the crown had
even in this case been compelled to
provide means for defending Brady
from ibis terrible oharge.
Tin first witness called was Farrell ,
the informer , who testified at the pre
liminary examination of tbo prisoners
In Kllmalnham court house. He
repeated the testimony given at that
time.
Daring the examination of Parrell ,
counsel , for the prisoner again pro
tested agalns : the introdustlon of
matters foreign to the present charges
relating onlv to attempts made against
the life of Fjrstar.
Judge O'Brien said only such evidence
donco waa admissible in the present
case as tended to connect the prisoner
with conspiracy. Farrell's evidence
went to show that Brady was associated
with memborq of the Inner circle and
was secretary to Oarley.
James C rey waa the next witness ,
and his evidence was the same as before
fore given. Carey was in the nitneas
box an hoar and three qnarten. He
gave a detailed account of the forma
tion of the Invlnclbles , bat was not
allowed to go Into the plots against
the lives of Forster and Eirl Cowpor.
While Corey was testifying , Brady
followed the evidence closely and
frequently sent not'a to his solicitors.
CUrey became perfectly cool ia de
meanor. Towards the clone of his
evidence ono of the knives found in
Rlngleud basin waa produced that
Carey might identify an the ouo nup
piled by Sheridan from London. Blur
phy , crown counsel , ot.Uod thit the
authorities know who No 1 la , am
expected a photograph of thismyHtor
